New attacks on graphics processors discovered by UCR
researchers

Computer scientists at the University of California, Riverside
have revealed for the first time how easily attackers can use a
computer’s graphics processing unit, or GPU, to spy on web
activity, steal passwords, and break into cloud-based
applications.

Ph.D. students Jason Ott and Tyson Loveless, working with
Chris Curtis, Dr. Mohsen Lesani, and Dr. Philip Brisk have
developed a new programming language aimed at making the lives
of chemists and biologists safer and easier.
